Notes

For clean slices, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry between each cut. Garnish with whipped cream, cocoa powder, chocolate shavings, fresh raspberries, or mint leaves before serving. If freezing leftovers, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then in foil to prevent freezer burn.
